If I Could

If I could change one thing about today's society

I would say screw all the shame, hate, and anxiety

"Fat" wouldn't be an insult and being "ugly" wouldn't be a crime. 

Sex wouldn't be taboo and bigots would be out with the times

It's a new world, a new day, but still we're focussed on the past

We shame people's bodies and put them on blast

We say they aren't hot enough, aren't good enough for us

We use words like "Slut" and "Whore" to describe those of us

Who are comfortable with our body, but do not choose to be objectified

If I could change one thing it'd be that the people would listen to the cries

Of those who need help, instead of blaming them

Listen and love them, instead of raping them

If I could change one thing It'd be you'd treat me the same as anyone else

That you'd treat your lover LIKE a lover, not a sex toy you leave  on the shelf

That you'd appreciate people for WHO they are not what they look like

That you'd call us a friend instead of, "Slut", "Whore", "Fat", "Skinny" or "Dyke".
